After ditching the aluminum tool box on the bed of my truck, I lost a good bit of storage space.

Especially for my jumper cables, small straps, small bottles of fluids (cetane boost, additives, etc.)

I like the looks of the Dee Zee Cab Organizer to put behind the rear seat.

Here is one with a locking compartment.

I also found this one that goes under the rear seat, but it looks awful bulky and kinda tacky looking too.

What are some of you using for storage?

I already had a 5 gallon air tank mounted on the frame and I just re-mounted and wired up the compressor on the frame yesterday.

I do have a 15 gallon air tank for sale.

Sorry, I still haven't touched the other set of train horns yet Robert.:sorry

Well, I still have my cross bed box in place so 99% of my "stuff" goes in there. Everything from winter weather gear to tool boxes and ratchet straps/bungee cords.

Inside the cab I use the console (I have buckets up front) and the storage tray behind the rear seat. I havent had the need for an aftermarket storage source inside the cab but would be a little reluctant to store fuel conditioner or other "fluids" inside.

Stephen, did you ever think about a tool chest that sits on the floor of your bed? DeeZee and weatherguard make some nice chests that you cant see above the bedrails.

I have, but I may have some future plans for some stacks, and really don't want another box in the bed.

Hey Bob, do you have one of those boxes? I have a ball in the bed and dont wanna block my view of it. Thats why I dont have a toolbox on the rails. I have a hard enough time hooking to a trailer as it is when by myself(ROOKIE)!

Hey King, some tool box manuf. make a "low-profile" box that doesn't stick up as high as your normal box.

It gives you a better view to the bed area.

Might be something to check into.

Stephen, have you considered a box like this? Or are you totally opposed to any bed box at all now?

Yeah I have one of the lowprofile ones that sets on the rails on my yota. I guess I just need to pull some measurements.
